Black Africa has done nothing for the furtherance of BLACK people globally. Africa is equally culpable in the racial imbalance the world witnesses now. African Americans have hung off of trees in the struggle for equality. but Black Africa find it too convenient to procure visas to go to America and have babies, for reasons of naturalization. All too convenient when those kids grow and join the chorus for BLACK LIVES MATTER.
African leaders have kept its people perpetually impoverished to the point that coming back home to AFRICA is not so attractive to the diaspora because we have SOLD ourselves short in every way possible.
This is a film that explores the lives and culture of an African and American marriage.....
This is the synopsis:
"Ebube a young talented welder struck gold when he met and fell in love with Janet via the internet. The two got married and settled in the US. Things got even better for Ebube when Janet assisted him in getting special certifications, leading to a well-paid job. Now Ebube has money to spend, and despite the warnings of his friend Ikenna begins to make terrible choices. In walks the sexy, seductive Ivie. She's trouble on two feet and Ebube is hooked in spite of the detriment to the wonderful life he's built with Janet his dalliance with Ivie would cost him. Strange troubles will give you romance, humor, drama, and horror all in one highly fast-paced entertaining package".
As Africans in the diaspora, we have not been able to tell our own story, and most times the western world fails to see the difference between an African in Africa and another African in Diaspora.
Strange Troubles tend to highlight what drives and motivates an average African in American.
